I know I'm daft, but I booked a non-refundable Jet2 return airline ticket. On the night before departure I got a tummy bug that made sure I couldn't travel - but I could hardly visit a GP either. In 2 days I was all clear again but of course the trip had come and gone.

I do however have travel insurance with AXA (annually) and I got a policy out on the flight itself with Travellers Protection Services Ltd (http://www.jet2.com/content/EN/popups/TPS_terms.html)

Has anyone got experience in trying to make a claim for something like this?
